Make Time for a Mammogram!

4:20 PM

When: Thursday, October 22 -- all day from 6AM to 10 PM

Where: Brookwood Medical Center - 205-802-6900 for an appointment

What:On Thursday, October 22, I will be live blogging with B-Metro Magazine at Brookwood Medical Center for their "Mammothon". This is a fun event for women that encourages them to come by and get a mammogram while enjoying food, fashion shows & more.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner will be served along with entertainment and SWAG bags for everyone!

Belk/ Wacoal are partnering this year and will be fitting women for bras at the Mammothon from 6 AM to 10 PM! For every woman who participates in a complimentary bra fitting, Belk and Wacoal will each donate $2.00 to Susan G. Komen ($4.00). No purchase will be necessary.

No referral is needed for a mammogram screen. Baseline mammograms are recommended at the age of 35 and annual mammogram screens are recommended annually at the age of 40.

3-D Mammograms will be offered! This technology helps doctors find breast cancer earlier. If you're uninsured and self-paying, the cost is $125. All patients may upgrade to a 3-D mammogram for an additional $50.
